Saving Planetary Systems: Dead Zones and Planetary Migration [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2007
The tidal interaction between a disk and a planet leads to the planet's migration. A long-standing question regarding this mechanism is how to stop the migration before planets plunge into their central stars. In this paper, we propose a new, simple mechanism to significantly slow down planet migration, and test the possibility by using a hybrid ...

PLANETARY MIGRATION IN EVOLVING PLANETESIMAL DISKS [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics D, 2003
In the current paper, we further improved the model for the migration of planets introduced and extended to time-dependent planetesimal accretion disks by Del Popolo. In the current study, the assumption of Del Popolo, that the surface density in planetesimals is proportional to that of gas, is relaxed. In order to obtain the evolution of planetesimal

RESONANT REMOVAL OF EXOMOONS DURING PLANETARY MIGRATION [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT Jupiter and Saturn play host to an impressive array of satellites, making it reasonable to suspect that similar systems of moons might exist around giant extrasolar planets. Furthermore, a significant population of such planets is known to reside at distances of several Astronomical Units (AU), leading to speculation that some ...

How planetary growth outperforms migration [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Planetary migration is a major challenge for planet-formation theories. The speed of type-I migration is proportional to the mass of a protoplanet, while the final decade of growth of a pebble-accreting planetary core takes place at a rate that scales with the mass to the two-thirds power. This results in planetary growth tracks (i.e., the evolution of

Origin of compact exoplanetary systems during disk infall [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Exoplanetary systems that contain multiple planets on short-period orbits appear to be prevalent in the current observed exoplanetary population, yet the processes that give rise to such configurations remain poorly understood.

Planetary migration in gaseous protoplanetary disks [PDF]

open access: bronzeProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007
AbstractTides come from the fact that different parts of a system do not fall in exactly the same way in a non-uniform gravity field. In the case of a protoplanetary disk perturbed by an orbiting, prograde protoplanet, the protoplanet tides raise a wake in the disk which causes the orbital elements of the planet to change over time.

Tilting Jupiter (a bit) and Saturn (a lot) During Planetary Migration [PDF]

open access: green, 2015
We study the effects of planetary late migration on the gas giants obliquities. We consider the planetary instability models from Nesvorny & Morbidelli (2012), in which the obliquities of Jupiter and Saturn can be excited when the spin-orbit resonances ...

Type I Planetary Migration in a Self‐Gravitating Disk [PDF]

open access: bronzeProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008
AbstractWe investigate the impact of the disk self-gravity on type I migration. We first show that considering a planet migrating in a disk without self-gravity can lead to a significant overestimate of the migration rate. Unbiased drift rates can be obtained only if the planet and the disk feel the same gravitational potential.
